How hard is it to sealion in sheep's mod or naval invasions in general i might play expert ai instead as that might be easier but at least the ai can use tanks properly and since i dont want to rollback to 1.17?
last dome
impossible
unless you did giga naval german build
even if you manage to land they will raid the shit out of you
viscid mason
impossible
How good are you at hoi4 mp just for reference?
dusky burrow
and had less dockyards than the uk did
last dome
How good are you at hoi4 mp just for reference?
im just ok

in sheep's

but its a waste of equipment
the AI will just raid you do death in the channel

i dont think its worth for an sealion in sheep's
instead go barb earlier or smth
viscid mason
Yeah i am just trying to improve at sealioning in general
last dome
and giga slamdunk russia
viscid mason
Tho I might just play expert ai instead since sheep isnt compatabile with 1.18 iirc. And also still trying to improve in vanilla hoi4 still.
last dome
but if you did meta german build and get green air over everything idk
might be possible
if your navy ain't completely melted d1
which wont happen prob
but its not worth going for UK honestly
just cap ussr
UK is pretty much a gamble
if you kill them before they raid the shit out of you
you might win idk
but ofc its sheep
they will have meta ship designs and stuff

hello yalls

This is what I used to do in vanilla before I decide to improve at my germany skills and cap uk before barb

if you kill them before they raid the shit out of you
of course you could just naval bomb them into oblivion tbh
